Season 5 of Boys it’s here and almost finished. Amazon’s hit series, inspired by the comic book series by Garth Ennis and run by Darick Robertson and created by Eric Kripke, is back for one final run. But who can say if this is really the end? The Boys’ cinematic universe grew with spinoffs such as Gen Vshort-lived Diabolical animated series, and more in development a spinoff, Vought Rising, is set to follow the story of Soldier Boy.
But as things stand, it looks like this will be the last confrontation of Homelander, Billy Butcher and their teams. Amazon wanted to keep the party going, but Kripke kept the story to five seasons, as he originally planned (unlike, you know, Supernatural).
All the familiar faces are back, including Antony Starr, Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Erin Moriarty, Chace Crawford, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso and Tomer Capone. Jensen Ackles makes his comeback as Soldier Boy; His Force of Nature co-stars Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins will also appear in the new season.
